On Wednesday at 20:00 on the “Maksimir Stadium” in Zagreb, Dinamo will receive the visit of the Rosenborg squad in a match counting for the first leg of the Champions League play-off.
The duel is announced extremely interesting considering the form that the two bands cross. Dinamo is unbeaten in the last 10 duels sustained in all the official competitions in which it played while Rosenborg has only one failure in the last 10 official matches, the one in the second preliminary round of the Champions League with BATE away, score 2-1 .
Dinamo Zabgreb reached the Champions League play-off after going clear to “general” with 5-0 (2-0 / 3-0) by Saburtalo Tbilisi in the preliminary round of the Champions League and with 5-1 at “general” (1-1 / 4-0) by those from Ferencvaros in the preliminary round of the competition.
On the other side, Rosenborg played three preliminary rounds to reach the Champions League play-off, eliminating one at a time from Linfield, overall score 6-0 (2-0 / 4-0), BATE Borisov , overall score 3-2 (2-0 / 1-2) and Maribor, overall score 6-2 (3-1, 3-1).
Probable teams Dinamo Zagreb – Rosenborg
Dinamo Zagreb: Livakovic- Perić, Leovac, Stojanović, Dilaver- Ademi, Hajrovic, Olmo, Moro- Petković, Oršić
Coach: Nenad Bjelica
Rosenborg: Hansen- Mehling, Hedenstad, Reginiussen, Hovland- Konradsen, Jensen, Lundemo- Soderlund, Akintola, Adegbroro
Coach: Eirik Horneland
Although the bookmakers give the second chance in this match and implicitly in the qualification of Rosenborg, we are convinced that the Nordics will have the strength to pose real problems to the Croats. Rosenborg’s offensive play is a quality one, with the Norwegians looking good from the middle up. It is worth noting that Rosenborg has scored in each of the last 13 matches, and they are all the prerequisites to succeed in the duel on “Maksimir”.
PREDICTION: D. Zagreb to win @ 1,62
